By Stephen J. Thomas<\/p>\n

ATHENS, August 18. THE US women's 800 freestyle relay team broke the oldest record in the book – set 17-year ago to this day by the German Democratic Republic – when they clocked 7:53.42, slashing 2.05 seconds off the old, drug-tainted mark. <\/p>\n

It was Natalie Coughlin who splashed a huge PR in her leadoff swim of 1:57.74 – faster than the winning time in the individual race last night – setting the team up for an all-the-way win. <\/p>\n

Coughlin, whose 200 time makes her the second fastest American all-time, had swum in the semifinal of the 100 free earlier in the evening. Even more remarkably, Kaitlin Sandeno stepped up to the plate and, allowing for the flying start, swam the fastest 200 free of her life having just completed a grueling 200 fly final only 30-minutes earlier. <\/p>\n

The individual splits were:
\nNatalie Coughlin 1:57.74
\nCarly Piper 1:59.39
\nDana Vollmer 1:58.12
\nKaitlin Sandeno 1:58.17<\/p>\n

As was suggested in the preview, World Championships bronze medalists China were the surprise packet, setting a new Asian record in 7:55.97.
\nGermany finally came good for a medal at these Games holding the Aussies off for the bronze in 7:57.35.<\/p>\n

The Aussies broke their national record to finish just 0.05 of a second adrift of the third spot. <\/p>\n

It was interesting to note that Dana Vollmer was not born when this record was set. When asked did she realise the significance of breaking the record and its part in the history swimming, she simply said, "no, not at all, all I know is we broke a world record tonight and the team won a gold medal." Perhaps she's right and we should now move on…<\/p>\n
